[GiDlist] entities references

[Zoubir Khatir]

I am using GID for Boundary Element Analysis and
I tried to associate each mesh element of the boundary (surface elements) to
the defined volume. exemple : surface element number x belongs to the
volume number y...

I tried to use the example from Advanced course documentation A2-Problem
type details.doc,
see the chapter 5. "INSTRUCTION *tcl IN THE .bas FILE" for my own problem.


I create a projectname.tcl file :

proc InitGIDProject { dir } {
}
proc EndGIDProject {} {
}
proc NumVolumes { } {
set a [.central.s info list_entities Status]
regexp -nocase {number of volumes: ([0-9]+)} $a none num
return $num
}
proc WriteAllVolumesInfo { } {
return [.central.s info list_entities Volumes 1:[NumVolumes]]
}
proc WriteVolumeInfo { num } {
return [.central.s info list_entities Volumes $num]
}


a condition in the projectname.cnd file :

NUMBER: 1 CONDITION: Volume_Id
CONDTYPE: over surfaces
CONDMESHTYPE: over face elems
QUESTION: Num_Entity#FUNC#(NumEntity)
VALUE: 0
STATE: HIDDEN
END CONDITION


and instructions in the projectname.bas file :

*set cond Volume_Id *elems *CanRepeat
*loop elems *OnlyInCond
*elemsnum *elemsconec *Cond(Num_Entity,int)
*end elemsn


Can you tell me what is wrong... because it does not work !!!
Thank you for your help.

1) You must apply the condition Volume_Id over the geometric entities (surfaces??) and remesh.

2) The condition is defined in projectname.cnd over surfaces, not over volumes, !!
the field #FUNC#(NumEntity) store the number of parent surface.

A triangle element is not created from a volume, it is created from a surface. (as it is the volume associated to a triangle of a common surface to two volumes? )

Only a tetrahedra or hexahedra can be associated to a volume.
